Our Anniversary Trip - London Part 1

We have reached London via the Eurostar. The view from our room. Our hotel faces Kensington Gardens unfortunately our room didn't have that view.

The first afternoon we walked up to Notting Hill where they filmed the movie and they have the Portabello Markets. We found a clothing shop that had a number of displays of vintage sewing machines.

The next day we wandered over to the Victoria and Albert museum where we spent 2/3 of the day exploring the museum. Even the floors were interesting.

After we finished we popped in the Natural History Museum which is across the road. It was a totally different atmosphere with lots of younger people in there. We did enjoy the building.

Plus we did go through the earthquake display and we went through their earthquake simulator of the Kyobe earthquake. These museum where just on the other side of Kensington Gardens. It was still quite a walk, we did over 10 km.
Plus we are having some great weather which helps.
Until Next Time
Keep Stitching
